11. Be3 Bd6 12. Rad1 h5 13. d4 g4 14. dxe5 Bxe5 15. f4 Bxc3 16. bxc3 Rg8
|
Taking the pawn would have set my queen and rook up for a fork by the bishop. Though this doesn't bother me as much as not being able to 0-0-0. |
|

|
|
17. f5 Qxc3
|
I snatch the pawn. |

This was an unnecessary sacrafice, as I thought I would need the B file for my rook when the D file was fine to begin with. |

Careful not to take f5 as 36.Rxe7 wins the queen by deflection! |
|
| |
|
|
36. Bg3 Nxf5 37. Bf2 a3 38. Ra1 a2 39. Kg1 c5 40. g3 c4
|
Hoping one pawn will eventually promote... |

|
Wanting to put my knight to some use, 41.Ne3! covers all the bases and threatens mate in 1. White resigns. Thanks for watching my game. Please, leave a rating! |
